MIAMI (AP) Prosecutors in Miami say they won’t seek the death penalty against four people charged with murder in the case of Washington Redskins star Sean Taylor if they are convicted.

Miami-Dade County prosecutor Reid Rubin said in a letter to lawyers for the suspects that the four will face a maximum sentence of life in prison if convicted.

Taylor’s alleged shooter was only 17 when the crime was committed in November. Minors are ineligible for the death penalty.



The 24-year-old Taylor was shot at his Miami-area home.
